Is it possible to first feel any restriction 4 weeks

after the fill? I've had 2 fills and haven't felt

a thing until after 4 weeks since the last one.

I haven't had to throw up a time and haven't

felt any type of restriction until the last day or

two. Could it take 4 weeks? Thanks!!!!

I've read on this forum that it can happen. Does seem odd doesn't it? Seems like it would be just the other way around?

I just started feeling restriction from this last fill, over 2 weeks afterwards. After 16 months I can say I am finally in the greenzone! Wahoo!!

It's that place where your band is adjusted just right. You can only eat a finite amount of food, and feel full and satisfied most of the time. No or very little stuck episodes, not a lot of hunger and losing weight.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
